    FAQ

    How much bandwidth is available, what's the speed for data transfer?

    You’ll get an upload capacity of approximately 5 Mbps and download capacity of approximately 1 Mbps. It’ll be the same speed as if you were using a public Wi-Fi service on land.


    Would it not be the other way around?

    Probably not.

    Its the same as train wifi where you'll see 0.2Mb down and 12Mb up regularly. The link they lease will be say 50D/50U but users want down a lot more than up, so effective down rates are many times lower and up rates.

    It annoys me to see bandwidth used as a word to describe download and upload speeds.

    When I used it going to Chicago in June it was around 2Mb/s down and 0.5Mb/s upload the ping was around 700-1000ms.
